HI Does anyone out there know of a program that converts a pictures, or allows you to draw a picture, or convert text to a "picture" using the IBM extended graphics character set? You know, all those clunky lines & stuff everyone used to use to draw frames & big letters & such! Or point me to some websites... Thx Marty

You know, all those clunky lines & stuff everyone My program doesn't use those clunky lines, but it does use IBM extended character set to produce different shades of colors. You need some kind of ANSI-driver to see the results. http://www.saunalahti.fi/~wheany/ and click on something resembling png2ansi. I haven't updated the page in a long time and don't remember what it looks like or what it contains ;-) -- Jan-Erik Finnberg whe...@saunalahti.fi ICQ:49316651 Visit http://www.saunalahti.fi/~wheany/FFVII/ for Final fantasy 7 midis and not much more!!
